Num. 10:1 ¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Num. 10:2 Make thee two trumpets of silver; of a whole piece shalt thou make them: that thou mayest use them for the calling of the assembly, and for the journeying of the camps.
Num. 10:3 And when they shall blow with them, all the assembly shall assemble themselves to thee at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
Num. 10:4 And if they blow but with one trumpet, then the princes, which are heads of the thousands of Israel, shall gather themselves unto thee.
Num. 10:5 When ye blow an alarm, then the camps that lie on the east parts shall go forward.
Num. 10:6 When ye blow an alarm the second time, then the camps that lie on the south side shall take their journey: they shall blow an alarm for their journeys.

"Despite the differences between the Mosaic and the Egyptian cults, it can hardly be denied that Egyptian influence on Jewish musical practices were quite significant. They would stand to reason because of the high quality of egyptian cultic music.

The tambourine or timbrel, a hoop of bells over which a white skin was stretched, came from Egypt. Miriam used this instrument to accompany the singing and dancing on the shores of the Red Sea (Ex. 15).

The trumpet blown for decampment, at the gathering of the people and on different cultic occasions, especially during sacrifices (2 Chron. 30:21; 35:15; Num 10:2), was the signaling instrument of the Egyptian army.

The sistrum, according to 2 Sam 6:5, was used by the Israelites and bore the name mena'aneim. It was the same as the Egyptian kemkem which was employed in the cult of Isis.

The solemnity celebrated on the occasion of the transferring of the Ark to Sion, as well as the dances of the daughters of Israel at the annual feast of the Lord of Shiloh (Judg 21:21), were similar in thier musical embellishments to Egyptian customs in the liturgy and at parades. As Herodotus reports,

women sang the praises of Osiris while likenesses of the gods were born about and, during the festival of Diana at Bubastis,

choirs of men and women sang and danced to the beating of drums and the playing of flutes." (Quasten, Johannes, Music and Worship in Pagan and Christian Antiquity, p. 65)

The passport has not been issued at once, owing to the amazing rascality of certain persons, who would have been bitterly annoyed at a pardon being granted to you, whom that party call the "bugle of the civil war"--and a good many observations to the same effect are made by them, as though they were not positively glad of that war having occurred.

Vergil, Aeneid 5.104
Now came the day desir'd. The skies were bright
With rosy luster of the rising light:
The bord'ring people, rous'd by sounding fame
Of Trojan feasts and great Acestes' name,
The crowded shore with acclamations fill,
Part to behold, and part to prove their skill.
And first the gifts in public view they place,
Green laurel wreaths, and palm, the victors' grace:
Within the circle, arms and tripods lie,
Ingots of gold and silver, heap'd on high,
And vests embroider'd, of the Tyrian dye.
The trumpet's clangor then the feast proclaims,
And all prepare for their appointed games.

From Markus, Reciting the Book:

Because the performer of epic is of such importance to the fashioning of the orator, Quintilian defines the appropriate way in which boys should read poetry

Sit autem in primis lectio virilis et cum suavitate [B, sanctitate A] quadam gravis, et non quidem prosae similis, quia et carmen est et se poetae canere testantur, non tamen in canticum dissoluta nec plasmate, ut nunc a plerisque fit, effeminata; de quo genere optime C. Caesarem praetextatum adhuc accepimus dixisse: Si cantas, male cantas; si legis cantas. (Quintilian I.O. 1.8.2)

18 But above all the reading must be manly and combine dignity and charm;

it must be different from the reading of prose, for poetry is song and poets claim to be singers.

But this fact does not justify degeneration into sing-song or the effeminate modulations now in vogue. There is an excellent saying on this point attributed to Gaius Caesar while he was still a boy:

"If you are singing, you sing badly; if you are reading, you sing."

19 The passage discusses reading as education and preparation for the delivery of speeches. Quintilian's reading list starts with epic poetry (Homer, Virgil), which should prepare the young orator for the dignified and appropriate manner in the delivery of speeches. Therefore, Quintilian carefully distinguishes the ideal style of reading epic poetry from its objectionable counterpart.

Every seven years, that is in the year of release, during the feast of Tabernacles, 
the Law was to be read before all the people according to the command found in Deut., xxxi, 10.

But this enactment was probably soon found to be impracticable;
        and thus the Jewish authorities arranged to
read on every sabbath,
        commencing with the sabbath after the feast of Tabernacles in one year of release
        and ending with the feast of Tabernacles in the next year of release,
a portion of the Law so calculated that the whole
Pentateuch would be read through in seven years.

This would in some way the commandment be fulfilled. Some time later,
        the Jews of Palestine lengthened the sections for each sabbath
        in such a manner that he entire Law could be read in three years (Talm. Babyl. Megillah, 29b).


The Britannica Notes:

A number of Sabbaths during the Jewish religious year have distinctive designations. 
Four occur between the end of Shevat (fifth month of the Jewish civil year)
        and the first day of Nisan (seventh month).

The specific name of each of these Sabbaths
        is related to an additional
reading from the Torah (first five books of the Old Testament)
        that replaces on that day the Maftir (last portion of the assigned
Torah reading).
For each of these four Sabbaths there is also a distinctive Haftara.

Sheqalim ("shekels"), occurring on or before Adar I, refers to taxes and has as its text Exodus 30:11--16. On Zakhor ("remember"), Deuteronomy 25:17--19 reminds Jews how they were attacked by Amalek in the wilderness after their Exodus from Egypt. 

This Sabbath precedes the festival of Purim. On Para ("red heifer"), Numbers 19:1--22 admonishes the Jews to be ritually pure for the approaching festival of Passover (Pesah). Ha-Hodesh ("the month") falls shortly before Passover; the text is from Exodus 12:1--20. These four Sabbaths are known by the collective Hebrew name arba' parashiyyot ("four [Bible] readings"). The Sabbath that immediately precedes Passover is called Shabbat ha-Gadol ("great Sabbath").

Miqra (h4744) mik-raw'; from 7121; something called out, i. e. a public meeting (the act, the persons, or the place); also a rehearsal: - assembly, calling, convocation, reading.

So they read in the book in the law of God distinctly, and gave the sense, and caused them to understand the reading. Ne.8:8

And the Lord will create upon every dwelling place of mount Zion, and upon her assemblies, a cloud and smoke by day, and the shining of a flaming fire by night: for upon all the glory shall be a defence. Is.4:5

Dwelling: 168. ohel, o´-hel; from 166; a tent (as clearly conspicuous from a distance):—covering, (dwelling)(place), home, tabernacle, tent.

Assembly: 4744. miqra, mik-raw´; from 7121; something called out, i.e. a public meeting (the act, the persons, or the place); also a rehearsal:  assembly, calling, convocation, reading.

Num. 28:17 And in the fifteenth day of this month is the feast: seven days shall unleavened bread be eaten.
Num. 28:18 In the first day shall be an holy convocation; ye shall do no manner of servile work therein:

Neh. 8:5 And Ezra opened the book in the sight of all the people; (for he was above all the people;) and when he opened it, all the people stood up:
Neh. 8:6 And Ezra blessed the LORD, the great God. And all the people answered, Amen, Amen, with lifting up their hands: and they bowed their heads, and worshipped the LORD with their faces to the ground.
Neh. 8:7 Also Jeshua, and Bani, and Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodijah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan, Pelaiah, and the Levites, caused the people to understand the law: and the people stood in their place.
Neh. 8:8 So they read in the book in the law of God distinctly, and gave the sense, and caused them to understand the reading.

Isa. 1:12 When ye come to appear before me, who hath required this at your hand, to tread my courts?
Is. 1:13 Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting.
Is. 1:14 Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hateth: they are a trouble unto me; I am weary to bear them.

Three other Sabbaths are designated by a key word from the Haftara chanted on that day: Shabbat Hazon (Isaiah 1:1), preceding the 9th day of Av (Tisha be-Av)&emdash;a fast day; Shabbat Nahamu (Isaiah 40:1) following the 9th of Av; and Shabbat Shuva (Hosea 14:2), immediately preceding Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement).

Finally, there are Shabbat Bereshit ("Sabbath of the beginning"), when the annual cycle of Torah readings recommences with Genesis 1; Shabbat Shira ("Sabbath song"), when the triumphal song of Moses is read from Exodus 15; and the two Sabbaths of hol ha-mo'ed ("intermediate days"), falling between the initial and final days of the Passover and Sukkot festivals.

Num. 10:30 And he said unto him, I will not go; but I will depart to mine own land, and to my kindred.

Xenophon, Anabasis [18] Some of the Thynians, however, turned about in the darkness and hurled javelins at men who were running along past a burning house, throwing out of the darkness toward the light; and they wounded Hieronymus the Epitalian, a captain, and Theogenes the Locrian, also a captain; no one, however, was killed, but some men had clothes and baggage burned up. [19] Meanwhile, Seuthes came to their aid with seven horsemen of his front line and his Thracian trumpeter. And from the instant he learned of the trouble, through all the time that he was hurrying to the rescue, every moment his horn was kept sounding; the result was, that this also helped to inspire fear in the enemy. When he did arrive, he clasped their hands and said that he had supposed he should find many of them slain.
